    Evening all

    Anyone know how to change the value (%) at which the low battery alarm comes up on the battery icon in the toolbar? Mine comes up at 25%, and I would like to change it to 10%.

    Thanks and regards to all

    in vista, right click on the battery icon in your system tray > Power Options > under the "Plan" that you are using you will see "Change settings", click this > then you will see "Change advanced power settings" click on that, this is where you can tweak many settings in relation to your power plan
